[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why should ND switch with Emory in particular why not another school? What makes ND the better school? Emory is more selective at 11% vs 14% for ND. [/quote]

Northeastern is more selective than both of them this year at 7%.

Acceptance rate is not counted at leat for the flagship ranking USN&WR any more.

Cool, as it should be but you still didn't answer the question. What makes ND better than Emory? Emory has top 5 grad programs. ND has none in the top 20. [/quote]

This is undergraduate ranking[/quote]
You refuse to answer the question. What makes ND better than Emory? Is it test scores? It's definitely not acceptance rate. Is it alumni respect? Wall Street placement? What is it? I'll tell you now Emory performs just as well or better on all these metrics. [/quote]

Notre Dame has happier students.  I think that impacts rankings, no?  Also, Wall Street placement is pretty strong for ND if I recall.  Also I like checking the Payscale ROI ranking, which has Notre Dame ranked at 80 and Emory at 150. https://www.payscale.com/college-roi  Earning potential and graduation rate seem to be driving this...Emory with only a 90% graduation rate and ND with a 96% grad rate.  I think ND students fare much better in general out in the world due to the outstanding alumni network that Emory most certainly lacks.

Also, you talk about acceptance rate...which does not impact rankings.  ND's acceptance rate for class of 2026 was 13%.  Emory's was 19%.  Not that it matters, but not sure why you even bring this up.[/quote]
